Motion

On Heat-Resilient Schools

The Young World Parliament,

Alarmed that extreme heat increasingly closes schools and harms learning,

Noting that many effective measures, from shading to ventilation, are inexpensive,

  1. Urges education authorities to adopt heat-action plans for schools, including adjusted hours and safe drinking water;
  2. Recommends low-cost retrofits (shade, cool roofs, cross-ventilation) in new and existing school buildings;
  3. Invites Young Leaders to document and share effective local measures through the Register of Youth-Led Adaptation Projects.

Counsel

Senior Counsellors, the former Presidents and Prime Ministers of United World Leaders, may publish written Counsel on a frozen text. They advise; they never vote.

Reserved. In this simulation no Counsel is shown: statements are never attributed to real leaders on fictional Motions. When the Parliament opens, signed Counsel will appear here in full.
